The documentation on pretty URLs states that you don’t need ‘non-standard server side configuration’ for pretty URLs to work. I don’t get how this works, since after “compiling” the website all files still have the ‘html’ file extension.
When I create a handcoded website, the URL always includes the file extension. I’m just interested in how this works, since I’m also working on a handcoded and would like to have easier control over the URL (instead of having to remove the file extension from the file).
